New Build Surveys & PDI

Our independent marine surveyors have extensive experience of new build yacht survey projects throughout manufacturers worldwide. Our processes have been refined due to many years of experience, where we have worked alongside the best shipyards in Europe. Our contribution commences at the contractual and specification stages in order to ensure that the client receives the best possible vessel to satisfy both their personal preferences and intended use.

Your designated surveyor will attend the vessel throughout construction in order to enforce specification and classification requirements and identify operational issues at a stage where they may be easily resolved to the mutual benefit of the client and also the shipyard. As such, inspections are arranged to coincide with major milestones and stage payments and a regular reporting system implemented to provide the client with formal progress updates at the appropriate technical level.

Our surveyors undertake a full pre-delivery inspection (PDI) process to include acceptance sea trials and systems testing, which generates a work list to be rectified prior to handover. Furthermore, we complete a final specification appraisal, cosmetic inspections and account for all soft furnishings and dispatch equipment. We then oversee the completion of remedial works in order to ensure that the vessel is 100% completed before acceptance. New build projects are tailored to suit customer needs and budget - we can undertake full new build survey inspections on vessels of any size.

We understand the uniqueness of every project and endeavour to offer the best possible service to your exact requirements
